Morgan McLernon announces significant UK Mainland Expansion

Ireland Logistics specialist Morgan McLernon (part of Culina Group) has announced a significant expansion onto the UK Mainland with the establishment of a major new purpose-developed site in Telford, Shropshire. The new state-of-the-art 40,000 sq. ft. chilled facility is perfectly situated for linking Ireland with the UK mainland road network.

“This new site opens up an exciting range of new opportunities and possibilities.” said Sean Hughes – Morgan McLernon Operations Director.

“We are looking to expand the site capability to provide third party logistics support services for customers and hauliers wishing to link up with us. We can help with inputting pallets for delivery, loads that need to be rearranged or rebuilt, or help with pallet consolidation.”

“Hauliers may also have a load that has fallen or is damaged. At our new facility we can strip the load, rebuild it, rewrap it, and reload it. This important site is also a hub for cross dock for our Ireland to UK Groupage operation and also our UK to Ireland Groupage operation.”

Operating since 1970 Morgan McLernon has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the transport, distribution, and shipping sector and has been transporting perishable foodstuffs such as fruit, vegetables, and meat for over forty years. Based in Lurgan County Armagh and now Telford, Morgan McLernon operates a fleet of 200 trucks and 500 trailers and employs over 550 staff
